Hey bro,
what are your goals? do you want to get stronger or get toned?
the one thing that throws people off when wanting a nice upper body is not paying attention to the lower body. in order for you to make gains you need to focus at least 3 times a week on squating or using your legs in some sort of work out.

Abs wise, everyone has abs. Your diet will either cover them or show them. Nutritionaly you need to get in contact with some who specializes in that. Also make sure you are getting enough cardio in and to know your heart rate (take 220- your age) use 80% of that rate to hit your fat burners.

If you want strength you want to use heavy weight with low reps and if you want to get toned you need light weight with high reps. You also need to remeber your muscles cant grow unless you rest. get plent of sleep and aim for a gallon a day of water.

here is a sample schedule for getting stronger

Monday
Flat Bench 3 sets of 5 reps
Increase Bench 3 sets of 5
Decline Bench 3 sets of 5
Flat Dumbell Flys 3 sets of 5

5 25-Yard sprints 30 sec rest in between sprints
